My fear is that with the financial tightrope most anime productions are walking anyway, some of these series - the less commercially-driven ones - may be abandoned rather than finished.

As a fan of isekai/fantasy series, even stupid ones that are generic, I am worried those types will be on the chopping block. For example Maou Gakuin no Futekigousha, I enjoy mindless stuff like that where I don't have to think and can just watch OP and ridiculous protagonists.

It's not a lockout, but it is a state of emergency. Due to WWII, the Japanese are VERY wary about authoritarian figures and so they truthfully have no legal power to prevent people or businesses from closing down. It's up to the production companies if they want to close and when to reopen if they do.

I think it more likely that shows like Hoshiai no Sora, Sing "Yesterday" for Me, or Sakura Quest would get axed before those isekai series.
